Did you read the article ? There are not enough hotel rooms. Cant really create those 

By the way, Indiana State's own fans seem to think this could've been avoided, too.

Come on guys it’s baseball. There’s no crying in baseball.

We're not talking about a full bloan tournament.  TCU is one team; limited number of fans would be coming.  Terr Haute would sell out their small stadium in a matter of minits and they would be localz.  ISU could open up residence halls for TCU and even TCU fans if needed.  Or special oym[pic competitors could stay in the dorms, too.  

 

If SIU needed, they could host teams right now at Wall and Grand aprtments.  And shoud have plenty of rooms over in marion.

I think the point here is they are making the special Olympics the priority. I’m pretty sure that is far far more important than any baseball game

sounds to me like this has nothing to do with the Special Olympics; ISU is trying to save face for being ill-equipped to handle a super regional and/or the NCAA strong armed them into letting Fort Worth host.

Either way is a poor reflection on ISU and the Missouri Valley as a whole.  Further proof of the pussification of America.

Really makes the MVC and ISU look bush league.

40 mins down I-70 there are 5 more hotels. Indy is an hour away. Effingham is an hour away.  I don't buy their excuses.

ISU should drop baseball!

No one is saying it's not more important than hosting the Super Regionals. People are saying that the administration appears to not have tried hard to make both events work.

I must say your spelling and grammar have certainly improved. Perhaps your cousin Salukibballfan could complete a study session with you.

What in the actual F are you talking about? How does this have anything to do with the  “pussification of America?”

I have to assume you are trolling here.

To be fair, the people on that site are as nuts and delusional as I’ve ever seen. I wouldn’t put much stock in that.

ISU lost to TCU last night, 6-4. It looked like they had a strong fan showing down there. 

This postseason brought a lot of publicity for the school and program (despite the gaffe over backing out of hosting the Super Regional, which have some people calling for the president, Deborah Curtis, to resign).

I hope Rhodes can get SIU there.

Two and out. Nothing like home field advantage NOT. A real clinker for Clinkscales. He and their president should be put on the dunk tank circuit for the next year
